Now 25, ‘Little’ Nikki Webster has married Matthew McMah whom she met on a blind date. Images: Woman’s Day<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The darling of the 2000 Sydney Olympics, ‘Little’ Nikki Webster is all grown up – and married! The gorgeous bride made headlines for finally marrying her beau Matthew McMah.<\/p>\n

Looking every bit the princess bride, Nikki married Matthew whom she met on a blind date two-and-a-half years ago.<\/p>\n

Nikki, who shot to fame as the cute-as-pie 13-year-old who opened the Sydney Olympics, spent 18 months planning her big day but was still incredibly nervous when it finally rolled around.<\/p>\n

“Put me in front of 1000 people to perform, and I\u2019m fine. Make me say vows <\/a>and a speech and I\u2019m a wreck,\u201d Nikki told Woman\u2019s Day<\/em>.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m also the clumsiest girl ever. I said to Dad, \u2018You better hold me up in case I trip over my dress<\/a>!\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n

Though Nikki did most of the planning <\/a>for the wedding, her new hubby managed to slip in a big surprise.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe got me a horse and carriage,\u201d said Nikki. \u201cIt was so romantic!\u201d<\/p>\n

\"horse\"<\/p>\n

\u201cI did it because her grandmother and her mother arrived at the church on their wedding days in a horse and carriage,\u201d said Matt.<\/p>\n

\u201cI thought it would be a lovely gesture, especially since her grandparents came all the way from the UK for the wedding. I looked at a few and picked the one that most looked like a princess carriage.\u201d<\/p>\n

Unfortunately, technical problems meant Nikki couldn’t travel to the church in the carriage, but she said she still felt very special, particularly since she arrived in a Rolls Royce and a stunning gown she designed<\/a> herself.<\/p>\n

\u201cI felt beautiful in the dress<\/a>,\u201d said Nikki. \u201cLike a princess. I couldn\u2019t wait for Matt to see me in it.\u201d<\/p>\n
